Is it possible to change your face shape in a non invasive way? (photos)

Morpheus 8 is a non-invasive skin and soft tissue tightening treatment that is consistently amazing in our patients. We use the Morpheus to exact fractional induced RF into the skin or tissue in order to tighten collagen and stimulate contraction of the tissue. For acne scars, it is quite useful to build collagen in patients who have atrophic scars but is not very productive for ice-pick scars which require TCA Cross. For tissue tightening, Morpheus is ideal for the face and neck and we often combine it with CO2 laser or Ultherapy to further enhance results. Chemical peels and skin resurfacing should be done at least 5 to 7 days after, but can be performed earlier, depending on treatment severity. Avoid exfoliating skin treatments before Morpheus and expect a period of 2-4 weeks for skin contraction to set in.

In our practice, we perform a non-surgical face lift / skin resurfacing treatment using Renuvion Helium Plasma Radiofrequency. To get the most improvement with skin tightening, we combine Renuvion (formerly J-Plasma) with lasers (Fraxel, Clear + Brilliant, CO2), microneedling/PRP, Ultherapy and InMode FaceTite. I suggest getting a formal evaluation with a cosmetic dermatologist. Best, Dr. Emer

Thank you for your question regarding nonsurgical procedures to the lower face.  There are a few modalities that may help you achieve a slimmer lower half of your face.  The first is the use of Botox in the masseter muscles.  These muscles can become large if you area grinding or clenching your teeth.  By relaxing the muscles with Botox, over time they will relax and diminish in size.  This will result in a smoother and less sharp angle of the jawline.  Secondly, fillers can also be used strategically ,and in addition to the Botox, can help contour the jawline to the shape you desire.  Lastly, some are using Kybella (off label) to melt fat in the lower face (jowls).  This can also be used in addition to the other treatments discussed above.  
To be sure, see two or more experienced, licensed and board-certified providers in your area for a complete evaluation to make sure you are a good candidate and that it is safe for you to have treatment. I hope this helps.

Thank you for your question.  Noninvasive facial contouring can often be accomplished using a combination of soft tissue fillers and botulinum toxins.  To determine whether you could achieve the type of improvement you are seeking would require evaluation in person.  Best of luck.

Thank you for sharing your question.  Though no definite advice can be given without a full series of photographs, if you are starting with a round facial shape that has little skin excess or sagging there is no surgical or non-surgical way to transform into an oval or heart-shaped silhouette.  Best wishes. 

There are ways to add volume (fillers), slim the jawline (Botox) and tighten skin with treatments such as Morpheus8. These will help to enhance certain natural features of your face and/or minimize less desired features. It will not permanently change the face shape.

Without examining you in person, impossible to say whether or not your goal can be achieved, but there are a number of non-surgical options for changing facial contour. These include dermal fillers such as Vollure and Botox. Schedule a consultation with a board certified plastic surgeon or cosmetic dermatologist to be assessed in person and discuss. 

At times, most of us would like to be someone else. Or at least look like someone else. As women, we tend to be very self critical and judgmental. The woman in your "desired" photo has a very thin, angular face. She will look old at a very young age.   Broad faces like yours appear youthful well into middle age. That said, if you would like to have a jawline that is a bit more oval, a temporary fix that you could "try on" would be Botox injections in the masseter muscle. Many Asians have this done for that purpose. 

Dysport® injections along the jawline can elongate and narrow a round face. Also, Botox Cosmetic® injections into the masseter (chewing) muscles can create a more oval profile. Since these are advanced injection techniques, please consult a board certified aesthetic dermatologist for a consultation.

Non-invasive facial contouring can be achieved with the use of Botox injections into the massatter muscles in the jaw. When the developed jaw muscles relax,it leads to the creating to create a slimmer looking face. The jaw line, chin and cheeks can also be enhanced with dermal fillers to assist in the contouring of facial features. When you are exploring the options of a facial procedure, make sure that you also explore the right type of cosmetic physician to perform your procedure. I would recommend scheduling a consultation with a facial plastic surgeon who is experienced in addressing non-surgical concerns related to the head, face, and neck.
